Dull, clichéd, stupid - choose all three

Rating: 3/10 (12 July 2013)

An absolutely dull and stupid movie. I understand that the RuleOfCool sometimes demands stupid and unrealistic situations, just to be cool.
But this film has waaaaay too much of them. Like total human stupidity in this film: 1) A global sea wall, really?
2) What are they thinking - there's only one portal that can be easily monitored and guarded. Yet we have monsters attacking freaking Alaska with mechas thinly spread all over the globe.
3) Absolutely stupid pilots.

A monster destroyed our cannon and other weapons, we have nothing left! (I'm obliged to say that by the rules of our trade union to increase the amount of drama)

No, we have that absolutely awesome sword that can cleave a monster in two! But we didn't use until the last moment just because it wouldn't be cool if we defeated the monster in a couple of seconds!

4) Unrealistic radiation disease.
5) Extra stupid "oxygen level 15%".
6) Battle on the ocean floor 3km down. In hole-ridden leaking mechas. Really? A leak at this depth would produce a jet strong enough to cut steel.
After a time I simply couldn't stop laughing. And it doesn't help that the most of the movie is just one large mecha-fight scene.
Oh, and characters... Let's not talk about them.
